What if death is a lie. What if when people get old they just move to some country which isn't on any world map and everybody plays along because they're paid actors you're part of one of those reaction shows that are on TV. You have aliens who live for so long that your entire life for them only lasts 30 minutes on their planet so it's perfectly timed to fit into 1 episode for them.

Also, would that make your usename Shadow of Death?
